I too am amazed that those fragile lips can survive. I think all these except the tall one in the back were dug. Only the green one has a chip.

Pretty common but I love the way the glass has the green impurities. You can see where it was sheared off and then the clean aqua glass was added for the lip. It is a good bottle for explaining how bottles were made.

Another common lip but I just love the color. It is the only one I have in this color. Not really sure what color you would call it. There is that dust again.

Very simple...I guess an unfired sheared lip would be the simplest.

This is an old cork top jar I dug and Paul Bata cleaned. If I hadn't dug it myself, I would swear someone messed with the lip, but it is all original.

That jar lip looks like a Salvador Dali painting.

Keep posting, this is fun!
Here is a GW Weston Saratoga (busted) with a lip that didn't have enough glass to go around when they applied it....
